Earlier I checked
qemu-system-x86_64 -device pci-testdev,\?
briefly. I didn't see anything relevant and figured it was out of scope.
(
Actually, I've thought of yet another thing: the resource reservation
capability for PCIe Root Ports. The 64-bit reservation field in that cap
structure should be perfectly suitable for this testing.
Except, of course, SeaBIOS only handles the bus number reservation
field, at this time. :/
)
Looking at "docs/specs/pci-testdev.txt" now, extending the PCI testdev
looks like a separate project to me. We're getting quite far from the
original goal. I totally agree that if the PCI testdev already had this
ability, it would be a perfect fit, but I don't think I can personally
take that on now.
Thanks
